Processes that determine the correlation between nuclear activity and coma structure in comets are largely unknown. Since ground based observations of comet nuclei are impossible, complex models present the best current method for interpreting coma changes during orbit, with the exception of in situ observations. Using data collected from the Deep Impact mission in 2005 and ground based observations from 1983 to 2005, we present a preliminary model of the interior activity of Tempel 1. Matching of output production rates to observed production rates provides information about the model's accuracy.
